Winter driving ?

  • Sponsors (?)


Get a lot of weight in the back (ie. bags of salt, cement blocks, anything). Keep your foot out of it and do everything sloooooooowly. If you start to slide out, DON'T brake it. Turn the wheels to straighten yourself out. It's possible to get around, but the road salt will tear your truck up. The probability of getting hit or you hitting something go way up in snow. I would get a winter junker. Yeah, I'm in NC now but had years of Buffalo winter driving. ; )
 
Yah I drove my car for 1 winter on the stock tires. It did pretty good accept for a few nights where it snowed really bad. I just washed the car every few days to get the salt off. I decided to buy a 93 tempo for the winter for 900 bucks.

I drive my snake in Northern Alberta Canada. I do because I enjoy the challange and the way a balanced car feels. The simple fact is get snow tires! It is not impossible to drive a performance car in the white stuff. Practice and smoothness.

Yup, if can drive them up here you can drive them anywhere. :nice:
